Looking for a program/app that will work on win10 where I can plan simple things like switches and battiers and such.
Have a look at this,
If you don't mind me asking, what is your electronics background?
Hobbyist with a degree in mad scientist. I make random things using different batteries I rarely use resistors or anything fancy but then again I do not really do much more than ducttape crap. As crazy as I am I do not screw around with li ons without proper chargers or load balancers since they like going poof, ni cad and ni hm were not as screwy.If you don't mind me asking, what is your electronics background?
I'd like to get a bit more proficient but I am a poor reader since elementary school taught me to hate reading. Anyway I keep it simple and try not to tax them as any battery will either die, melt or explode if put under to much stress.
Ok, was just curious. I'm a retired electronic technician. I play around with breakout boards etc on a wireless breadboard setup. It interfaces with a Raspberry Pi single board computer.
This is one of my favorite sites,
Some cool stuff here too,
And here,
I just do my schematics hand drawn on a piece of paper.
Well I was hoping a program would have some basic resistors and what not I always wanted to get a kit that lets you build various things on test boards but gaaaa I am broke and by the time I have money it goes to other things, electronics is maybe the last of my hobbies. Video games/Anime/Sci fantasy shows/comics to fuel creative writing and drawing(as long as my drawing tablet works) are my primary hobbies, building random things like a head rest for my computer chair out of a foam pillow and 1/2 inch pvc pipe. Then there's electronics which I've always had an interest in just the ohms and amps and resistance kinda went over my head I just more comprehend the basic flow of electricity.Ok, was just curious.

I've spent thousands on my Raspberry Pi habit over the years. And I have more things on my wish list.

The Adafruit site I linked to has all kinds of kits for learning electronics. Resistors, capacitors, LED's etc, can be recovered from dead electronics. If you can use a soldering iron, and a pair of pliers. An old transistor radio, etc.
